Abstract: Ventilation air for a building is preheated by providing on a sun-facing wall a solar-energy absorbent collector panel with a plurality of air-inlet openings which communicate with air collection channels behind the panel. Outside air passing upwardly along the panel is heated by the heat of the panel which itself is heated by a combination of solar radiation and heat being lost from the interior of the building. The outside air, passing upwardly a short distance along the panel to the closest air inlet opening, is withdrawn therethrough into the air collection channel and expelled into the interior of the building. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A fitting with drill and combined valve contains a housing (6) made of a weldable plastic and having a valve connection piece (8) into which a branch connection piece (10) leads. A drill (34) is arranged in the valve connection piece (8) in such a way as to be axially movable with a spindle (12) in order on the one hand to drill a pipe (4) welded to the housing (6) and then on the other hand shut off or clear the branch connection piece (10) when required with regard to the pipe (4). This fitting is to be developed to the effect that high operating reliability and tightness are guaranteed both during the drilling and for the valve function. It is proposed that the guide bush (24) for the drill (34) be arranged in the valve connection piece (8) in such a way as to be secured against axial movement and rotation, and that the guide bush (24) extend at least over the area into which the branch connection piece (10) leads. The guide bush (24) contains a valve seat (32) at its bottom end and an opening (28) in the area of the branch connection piece (10). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The object is to prepare a high-molecular-weight polyester in such a way that it is possible to make even relatively small amounts of very high molecular weight available in an advantageous manner. This is achieved by preparing a polyester containing an alkenediol by continuing the polycondensation step to a viscosity number of 50 - 140 cm<3>/g and treating the resultant polyester with from 0.001 to 8 % by weight of a free-radical former which decomposes at temperatures in the range from 130 to 350 @C with a half value period of from 5 s to 120 min, and subsequently continuing the polymerisation to the requisite viscosity number. The process according to the invention allows high-molecular-weight polyesters having the desired property profile to be obtained.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the cold start of a free-piston diesel engine, comprising a cylinder (1) having a combustion room (2) therein and an air inlet (6), fuel supply (8) and combustion gas outlet (7) connected thereto, and a piston (4) movable within the cylinder (1) and limiting one side of the combustion room (2). Energy is supplied to the piston (4) to compress air supplied through the inlet by reducing the combustion room, whereafter fuel is injected to allow the fuel-air mixture to ignite by spontaneous combustion. So much compression energy is delivered to the piston (4) that the combustion room (2) is reduced to a volume of less than 3% of the combustion room (2) volume when the outlet (7) is closed. The corresponding free-piston engine has a dead volume of less than 3%.

Abstract: A process for providing a relatively smooth, tough, elastomeric coating over one surface of a fibrous batt employs a heated ironing surface which engages an uncured coating of a composition of cross-linkable elastomeric aqueous emulsion applied as a foam or froth to an exposed surface of a fibrous batt. The heated belt causes dewatering and cure of a film of the coating which is in contact with the ironing surface. The fibrous batt thereafter is heated in a curing oven to drive off substantially all of the moisture and substantially cure all of the elastomeric coating composition. The resulting coated fibrous batt has a smoother and tougher surface than similar batts formed from similar compositions without the interposed ironing treatment. A preferred ironing element comprises a continuous stainless steel belt.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for grinding materials of different granular size, in which particles of material to be ground, which are thrown off over the edge of a grinding dish (6), are transported upwards in a helical flow close to the housing wall with the aid of a gas-conducting arrangement (19) which generates a twisting or rotating flow. Under the influence of centrifugal force and gravity, a particle flow is formed essentially from external granular material which, as a deaerated dense flow (17), is not involved in the actual grinding and sifting process and is extracted at least in part from the grinding/sifting space. An extraction arrangement (25) is arranged on the housing wall in the radial direction above the grinding path and connected to a mechanical conveying arrangement, in particular for guiding back into the grinding/sifting space. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for activating a mammalian immune system entails a series of continuous IL-2 infusions that are effected intermittently over an extended period. For example, IL-2 can be administered continuously for a period that is on the order of 5 days in length, and successive infusions of this nature can be separated by a period of at least 4 weeks. Sustained beneficial effects, including elevated CD4 cell counts, restoration of lymphocyte function and an increase in the number of IL-2 receptors, are achieved with such intermittent IL-2 therapy, which can be combined with another therapy which targets a specific disease state, such as an anti-retroviral therapy comprising, for example, the administration of AZT, ddI or interferon alpha.
